Note to self, find more birdseed and pokefood.

Looks like I'm carrying around Kazooie. I forget why. [He doesn't, but he does look like he doesn't want to say the reason.] And now I've got a 10-year-old Straw-Hat in tow. And I still can't make my fish doing anything except Splash.

I really hope this is a dream.

In case it isn't, any and all marines report in immediately. This is White Hunter Smoker, over and out.

[About to shut it off and remembers.] Garp if you're here, I have your Grandson. One of them. Okay that's it. [NOW shuts it off. Then it comes on again about fifteen seconds later with him looking shifty and flustered.]

And if someone has a bigger backpack I'll trade... something.

[At this point, Kazooie yanks the device away and the bright red-head adds loudly.] MUCH BIGGER. [He gives her a short glare and shuts it off once and for all.]

I don't think they're usually meant to carry people.

Tch. What is it with you and backpacks anyway?

[usedbravebird.livejournal.com]

I've lived in them my life. It's weird not having one.

[justicereigns]

Fair enough. I'm used to having a bird-woman always follow me around for the last for years. [Mild face-palm about it.]

[usedbravebird.livejournal.com]

I thought you people weren't used to talking birds.

[justicereigns]

I'm not. Well aside from parrots. But I'm not from the same world as most people around here. Except Straw-Hat.

Tashigi's just my ensign. It's the name of a bird where I'm from. Suits her.

[usedbravebird.livejournal.com]

[M...most of that just flew over her head, honestly.]

Tash-a-wah?

[justicereigns]

Tashigi. My second in command. Err, kind of like your friend Banjo? I think?? Except more professional. She's a swordswoman, but rather bird like. It was a joke on her name.

[usedbravebird.livejournal.com]

You and her been together forever or something? [That's all she got out of the "like your friend Banjo" part.]

Not very much like Banjo if she was a bird, though. He's a bear.

[justicereigns]

For some years at least. I've had other friends longer, but I trust her justice more. [Because that explains everything.]

No, she's like a bird. A blind one.

[usedbravebird.livejournal.com]

[Hey, makes sense to her. You trust who you trust. Hers just happens to be the person who's put up with her the longest... and one of the few who actually CAN.]

Blind bird?

[justicereigns]

[Actually... that's exactly how Smoker's is too.]

Near blind. She has to wear glasses or she can't see a thing. And she's always forgetting them, so she might as well be.

[usedbravebird.livejournal.com]

[Gasp!]

Glue 'em to her face.

[justicereigns]

I couldn't do that. She has to take them off to swim and shit.

[usedbravebird.livejournal.com]

So? You can swim with glasses.

Can't you?

[justicereigns]

I don't think she can. Besides, she's a clutz as it is so she tries to keep them safe when she can.

[usedbravebird.livejournal.com]

How did she get to be second in command of anything?

[Really, that doesn't sound like much of a commander.]

[justicereigns]

[Growls. No one gets to insult his Tashigi except him.] Because I trust her justice.

[And she's a capable fighter, but he refuses to say so.]

[usedbravebird.livejournal.com]

[Kazooie fehs, and just shifts back to sitting against him.]

Eh, she's better then most of the morons I know, at least. One light hit and they're down

[justicereigns]

Yeah. [Proud note in his voice.] Best thing I can say for her, she falls down, but she gets back up. Keeps going no matter how hurt she gets.

[usedbravebird.livejournal.com]

[Hm. That reminds her of her and Banjo, not that she'd ever admit they had trouble, noooot a chance in hell.

She makes a "hrm" noise.]

[justicereigns]

[The situation IS pretty similar. Which must be why he likes her.]

What's Banjo like?

[usedbravebird.livejournal.com]

[I can think of no other explanation as to why a perfectly sane person would willingly do so.

She's quiet a minute.]

Eh, he's really annoying. Yells at me a lot of the time, always worried, and pretty lazy. He never really wants to go on adventures half the time, pfeh.

But the most annoying thing is that he's always going to help someone out. At least we usually get something for it.

[Her voice has a strangely fond tone to it, despite what she's saying.]

[justicereigns]

[I will never call Smoker sane except in comparison to even more crazy people XD]

Heh. Sounds like you've known him for ages.

[usedbravebird.livejournal.com]

Since I can remember, mostly.

[justicereigns]

Very long time then. [Approving nod.]
